Windshields protect you and other passengers in your car from rain, wind and road debris. Glass damage can result in a high-cost auto insurance claim. It’s therefore best to fix the problem as soon as possible.

Polymer resins can repair some chips and cracks, making them almost invisible. If the crack or chip extends beyond the edge of your windshield, you should replace it.
Windshield Replacement
The windshield is an important part of your car. It provides protection from UV rays as well as visibility to other drivers.
It can, however, be damaged with time. It can be difficult to see through glass that has chips, cracks or pits.
Repairing smaller cracks and chips is possible, but replacing larger ones may be necessary. This includes any cracks or chips that are larger than a dollar bill’s surface, or that penetrate the outer and the inner layers of the windshield.
The comprehensive coverage of your insurance policy will cover the cost of replacing your windshield, less any deductible. Some insurance companies offer to waive your deductible in order to encourage safe driving.
Repair Window Regulators
Window regulators are systems that control your vehicle’s power windows. The motor is controlled by an electrical switch.
If your window regulator is malfunctioning, it can cause the window to take a very long time before rolling up or down. Or the window may fall almost as soon as you push the button. A bad motor, a fuse or a relay could be the cause of this problem. It’s best to have a mechanic look into it.
The window regulator is made up of a set of tracks, metal cables, and plastic pieces that guide the cables. These parts will wear out over time and eventually break.
Your power windows can also stick if your window regulator is faulty. The regulator can jam if small rocks or debris get stuck between the tracks.
Door & Tailgate Repair
Ace Auto Glass replaces and repairs side/rear doors, sunroofs, and tailgates for all models and makes of cars, trucks, and heavy equipment. All vehicles are also repaired for both power and manual windows.
The latching mechanism of your doors and tailgates is designed to transfer the motion from the handle to the latches securely. Plastic clips connect the handle to the rods.
The rods can wear out and break over time. It can be difficult to open or close your door or tailgate properly.
Replace the plastic clips and rods if you are having problems with your tailgate. If this doesn’t work, you can have an O’Reilly tech inspect and replace the tailgate latch assembly.
Power Window Repair
The power windows feature is a fantastic way to open and close the doors of your vehicle without getting out. If your windows don’t work properly or are stuck open, you may leave your interior vulnerable to the rain or to opportunistic criminals who might see this as an opportunity to steal your car.
Most often, a malfunctioning window power system is due to a problem with one or more components. The technician will use electronic testing equipment and wiring diagrams to determine which component is the cause of the problem.
Press the window switch for several seconds up and down using a voltmeter to see if you get a different reading. It’s possible that the motor or regulator is malfunctioning.
